At this moment, Beatrice and Claire were on their way to her grandfatherâs place, driving
the BMW M8 that was given to Dorothy by Alex.
Beatriceâs grandfather was Aidan Bardot. He has two daughters, Claire was the elder
while the younger one was named Adrianna Bardot.
Adrianna was much snobbish than Claire, she would always try to compare with Claire
in every aspect. Ever since Claireâs husband, Henry Assex, went missing after a trip
with his secretary, Adrianna insulted and looked down upon her every time they met.
More importantly, Adrianna had a daughter, who was a year younger than Dorothy, she
would always show her off in front of Claire.
Under such circumstances, Claire naturally couldnât drive her dilapidated car back
home.
Only a BMW M8 that was worth two million dollars could show her elegance and
flamboyance. When the time came, she could get back at her sister to regain her self
esteem.
âMom, Sis found a new boyfriend!â Beatrice, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said
suddenly, âLooks like she has finally come around and stopped clinging to that loser
Alex.â
Claire turned to her. âHow did you find out?â
Beatrice replied, âIn Sisâ company group chat, Iâve been lurking in there. Now everyone
is talking about her new lover. He drives a limited edition Lamborghini! Morn, do you
know how much that costs?
At least fifteen million dollars!â
âWhat? A car that costs fifteen million dollars?!â Claire exclaimed in surprise, as she had
never seen such an expensive car in her life. âWhere? Where?â
Beatrice showed Claire her phone.
âThis one here, look! Isnât it so cool?â
Claire stared at it excitedly, with her eyes sparkling. However, after her hands slipped,
she accidentally ran the car into a railing with a loud bang.
Both the mother and daughter were shocked to their core. They hurriedly got out of the
car and checked its condition.
The carâs bumper had fallen off, the right lamp was broken as well.
Helpless, Beatrice cried without tears. âMom, what do we do now? I shouldnât have
shown you if I knew this would happen. If we were to wait for the cops to deal with this,
we might end up missing Grandpaâs birthday celebration dinner.â
Claire said, âWhy should we call the cops over a broken BMW? We donât even know
where that loser Alex got his hand on it. Who cares if itâs broken? Your sister is now
riding a Lamborghini, why would we need this damn BMW?â
Beatrice replied, âThank God we didnât run over anyone. Please drive more safely,Mom!â
Claire huffed.
âThis is all that trash, Rockefellerâs fault. Why did he even give us such a
poor car? Everyoneâs driving automated cars now, not old and outdated cars like this!â
They had finally reached their destination, Aidanâs place.
Multiple cars had been parked outside the entrance, there was even a dashing red
Ferrari.
Numerous people surrounded the Ferrari and gossiped about it in awe and
envy, some were chatting enthusiastically.
At first glance, Claire immediately noticed Adrianna and her family, who were standing
there. Adriannaâs husband, Taylor Bellamy and her daughter, Sharpay Bellamy were
standing next to her.
Next to Sharpay was a man in a suit, who seemed quite intimate with her. They were
most likely dating.
âYo, Sis, youâre finally here! I thought you wouldnât come to Dadâs 66th birthday
celebration. You actually showed up in a broken car? Oh look, the bumper fell off too. Is
your family so poor that you donât even have money to fix it?â
Adrianna rushed over to
Claire as soon as she parked her car. Seeing the broken BMW, she almost couldnât hold
in her laughter.
Claire said with a darkened expression. âMoney to fix it? I literally just crashed it on the
way here. Open your eyes wide and look clearly, this is a luxurious car thatâs worth two
million dollars.
I donât really care if itâs broken and Iâm too lazy to go through the
insurance stuff anyway. At most I would lose a few hundred thousands dollars, but
Dadâs birthday takes the cake.â
âHahaha, what a joke!
A broken car like this costs two million dollars? More like scraps
from a junkyard! Just drop the act already. Who doesnât know that your family is going to
get kicked out of the Assexes?â
Adrianna smiled as she pointed toward the Ferrari.
âTake a good look at this. Now thatâs
a real luxurious car. A Ferrari, have you ever seen one? Furthermore, this is my
son-in-lawâs car, itâs worth five million dollars! Would you like to take a photo of it?
